Great experience outside the city center - This tour was a highlight of our time in Rome! So many amazing sights that you would not see in the city center. Thanks to Aaliyah for being an excellent guide! Highly recommend this tour but keep in mind it requires biking over sometimes bumpy and rough terrain.

This was amazing and such... - This was amazing and such a fun way to see part of the city we otherwise wouldn’t have gotten to see. Our guide was fantastic and was also so great with our younger son to keep him interested throughout. The bikes were super easy to use and the route on the city streets was well thought out with lots of care and help crossing busy streets. Beautiful sites and scenery and it was so fun to see some of these important sites away from the busy and crowded areas of the city.

Top!!! - A great tour! The Parque of Via Appia is beautiful and very large and full of impressive ruins and remains from the time of the ancient Romans. You wouldn't get far without a bike. I also liked driving through the suburbs and normal residential areas of Rome, on the way to the park. And in the park, we also drove overland, on dirt roads - that means you really came into nature. We saw flocks of sheep and two wild rabbits!

Memorable Bike Tour! - Fantastic experience from start to finish with a knowledgeable tour guide and efficient bikes. Seeing the Appian Way, catacombs, and aqueducts all in one go was amazing! Highly recommended, I would definitely do this tour again.

Bike Exploration - You get to see a lot of out of the way sights and learn the history from a knowledgeable guide. They help keep you safe on the bikes and the biking is a lot of fun! Our guide took us to a great pizza spot for lunch that we never would’ve found on our own. A tip for female travelers, make sure you have the support you need to ride over cobblestones!

No Better Way To experience Roma! - We had a blast! We were heaven living our best life because we were in Rome riding e-bikes in the Appian way. The trek was safe and informative. We loved our guide Sino! He was knowledgeable and very professional. This is one of the best tours in all of Rome! We absolutely loved it! We want to do the night tour of the city! Grazie! Grazie!
